My kids could fart and my father-in-law would be like, “Great job! Here’s five bucks.”

Politics would never ruin the relationship I have with my father-in-law. Sports did that for us a long time ago.

at the end of the Disney Robin Hood movie King Richard says, “it appears that I now have an outlaw for an in-law,” and I’ve thought about that joke approx once a week since I was 7

Mother in law: Why don’t you guys join us for lunch?

I hear the soundtrack to "Requiem for a Dream" play in my head whenever we pull into my in-law's driveway.

When your toddler asks why you don't wear glasses like daddy and grandma the answer is not "superior genetics", at least not in front of your MIL

I wouldn't have thought anything of it, except that my mother-in-law attached a note that said, "I did NOT pick this out."
So apparently my father-in-law thinks I stink.
Thanks, Bill.
I have found my personal hell and it is an email from the in-laws, subject: Zoom Thanksgiving activity sign-ups.

My in-laws are caroling people. Not like go to people’s houses caroling, but like sit around the piano and sing. It’s a lot. Who even knows the words to Mary Did You Know?
— Lady Lawya (@Parkerlawyer) December 25, 2019
My in-laws, that’s who. And if you don’t know, there’s sheet music, heathen.

My FIL just came out of the bathroom and said (in all seriousness), “whew, now I know how women feel after giving birth!”
